Pervinca (pervincaperiwinkle) | 155 comments Hi, i'd like to join for these two books in April:
The Maze Runner (planning on reading the whole series)
The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires

Thanks!


message 1008: by D.L. (new)

D.L. | 1515 comments This is a long shot but by any chance does anyone want to read the non-fiction book The Six Wives of Henry VIII by Alison Weir? I've had it on my e-reader for years just collecting virtual dust and I really want to tackle it this year. It's a long one so we could read it over the course of 2 months. I suggest June-July, but I'm open to other months.

SarahKat | 6223 comments Sunny and oshizu you are removed from those.

A Game of Thrones confirmed for July! Let us know if you want to make it a 2-month read. A lot of groups do this for that series since the books are longer.

message 1032: by Stuti (new)

By who is it written? I can’t find it on goodreads.

@Dominique, Stuti and Allie, What do you think? Should we do the first book as a two month read? :)

Yes, since each books gets bigger we should do them two months for all of them.

Ilse, it's by Gregory Maguire and there are 4 books total in the collection.

Alyana I'm good with doing it as a two month read--just so I have that right does that mean we'd be reading the first one for July and August?

Yes, we will read and discuss the first book in July-August :)


message 1038: by Ilse (new)

Ilse | 337 comments Stuti, I found it and I’d love to read it with you. I loved the movie as a child, so I’m excited for this! I’ve got a few buddy reads planned for July, so can we do it in August?


message 1039: by Chantal (new)

Chantal (coinchantal) | 458 comments Does anybody want to read in May:

We Begin at the End
The Underground Railroad

Yes August is fine! Did you want to just start with Wicked and then if we want to continue we can do the rest in the months after?


message 1041: by Trisha (new)

Trisha (trishabisen) | 2389 comments Chantal & Zeejane, your suggestions have been added.

GOT readers, first book will now be read from July through August.

Stuti, we are not accepting August suggestions yet. Please come back by end of April and re-suggest your book. Also, when you're making a suggestion, make sure to either add the book link, or share the full name of the book, series and author; you can go through the first post of this thread for buddy read guidelines.

Updated.

I will re-submit at the end of the month and I will post it the right way next time, sorry!

Yes, I think it’s a good idea to start with Wicked and continue with the rest if we want to the months after. Even though we can’t submit the book for August yet, I’m looking forward to reading it with you!
